  • Assembled my first 3D printer

    Jump

  • Hey congratulations! I hope you enjoy owning a printer!

    I had a very similar experience building my first printer (a Prusa MK3S) a bit over five years ago. I’ve rebuilt it a couple of times since.

    That experience is serving me well as I build a Voron 2.4R2 (with ASA parts printed on the MK3S). The learning curve part appears to be largely behind me, and owning the Prusa did help ease that since they make a lot of things pretty easy.

  • Would you like a 5 minute argument or the full half hour?

  • I would take it as a compliment even though it wasn’t meant that way. Your writing is so thoroughly organized that people assume a tool wrote it instead.

  • Amazing for its time. Having a portable version of it was extra great

  • Fine! I’ll just replicate another!!

  • Stop. My drives can only get so hard.

  • Is the Steam Deck still worth it in 2025? I'd argue yes — but with caveats

    Jump

  • I pretty much always consider games through the lens of my Steam Deck. If it’s a cross-platform game that would run well on the Deck, then I get it for the Deck.

    And this is primarily because I can freely install those games to other PCs. If my Nintendo Switch were to get destroyed, then I lose my games with it (outside of emulation, of course). I don’t want games being so temporary. I still play games that are nearing 50 years old!

  • Wages aren't keeping up with inflation, with some jobs falling further behind than others

  • And it was inadequate then

  • And if you buy a game on PC, it doesn’t stop being playable in a generation or two like consoles.

  • D'oh

  • You shouldn’t feel shame. You’re just part of the club now. It seems to me that borking your system using a terminal is just a right of passage

  • I actually really love department stores.

  • A local hospital system largely took over one of the two malls near me. You’d almost not recognize the inside anymore as having been a popular mall in the 90s.

  • I hated that too. I did enjoy the season before that a lot though

  • Hard to say why specifically without spoilers, but I think you should at least try watching Discovery. It has some interesting ideas and is not altogether bad. I still like it the least out of all the series though. My issues with it are purely structural in nature (in short, too many things are rushed IMO).

  • AI is doing job interviews now—but candidates say they'd rather risk staying unemployed than talk to another robot

    Jump

  • Let’s not absolve HR from their hand in this process. They’re the ones that setup ATSs based on keywords they don’t understand, and they’re the ones that do initial contact and interviews, in general anyway.

    I’ve worked at quite a few organizations at this point in my life, and only rarely did a hiring manager get more say than a choice among the pre-selected pool that HR provided. When that wasn’t the case for me, it was because the company or organization was too small to have a full team handling HR stuff. Once it was the company’s accountant (sweet lady though).

    You’re not wrong, but HR doesn’t really add much to this process when the people with the experience and understanding to choose better employees don’t get to participate until a second round.

  • Any guides out there on how to do this?

    Isn’t it obvious which tool you use to give you a guide?
